Swans Are Fat Too by Michelle Granas

4.0

Poignantly written story. I must admit I skipped over some history stuff because it was rather dull, like reading a science paper. But I adored Hania's relationship with the kids and how they grew to trust her. Didn't really like how Kalina's pregnancy was handled though. I liked the realism with how the author portrayed Hania's life, none of that bs positivity and escapism stuff I happen to read upon in American book. A book from a different point of view was refreshing from the standard Americanized one I've become accustomed to seeing.

The ending felt very abrupt though, I wish there was some resolution with the kids, or at least something because it felt like it ended right in the middle of a chapter.
